Overview
A beautiful reimagining of this beloved children's book featuring full-colour illustrations by Chris Riddell, the 2015-2017 UK Children's Laureate.Synopsis
Chris Riddell's brilliant full-colour illustrated Through the Looking Glass in a sumptuous hardback and jacketed edition, is the perfect gift for families, children and all fans of this much-loved favourite classic.Alice's second adventure takes her through the looking glass to a place even curiouser than Wonderland. She finds herself caught up in the great looking glass chess game and sets off to become a queen. It isn't as easy as she expects: at every step she is hindered by nonsense characters who crop up and insist on reciting poems. Some of these poems, such as "The Walrus and The Carpenter" and "Jabberwocky" are as famous as the Alice stories themselves.This edition presents Lewis Carroll's complete text, with illustrations from Costa Award and Kate Greenaway Medal Winner Chris Riddell. Publishing 200 years after the birth of Alice's first illustrator, Sir John Tenniel, also the political cartoonist of his time, Chris Riddell's illustrations set a new bar in terms of excellence with his unique, rich and evocative interpretation of Carroll's world.Book Details
